You know some of the reactions are effing hilarious man. The folks who had a huge issue with the promotions of Dilwale and how OTT they were are suddenly not happy with the lack of promotions of FAN. And I ain't talking about Shahrukh fans here. There is a certain section out there who he can't please and these aren't fans at all but folks who pretend to be fans. People need to understand Dilwale was a different movie. It needed that kind of promotions. A FAN doesn't. FAN is a niche movie so no matter how much you promote it , it will still appeal to only a section of the audience.

And people celebrating the fact that it hasn't worked at the BO in India...haha! Predictable. I said this yesterday and will say it again , let's all be a little patient and wait to see the final WW gross. It hasn't even released in all the countries out there. Bash its BO all you want because that's all you got. The fact that it's one of Shahrukh's best performances , the fact that plenty out there are loving it to bits, the fact that it has got Shahrukh praise from all corner , the fact that it will go down in history for not only his performance but also for the movie it is , is something you can't take away from it.

BI , I have a question. I'm not someone who follows these sites. I don't get what BOI is trying to do here but I think a lot of the people who follow this stuff can look through it , like you did. I say bring on the clash! Not because I'm cocky about Raees but because like I said a few days back , it's meant for EID and they should release it on EID. Anyone who has followed these trade pundits during the time of Dilwale would know a thing or two about their bias. I'm not talking about the figures here but rather the comments that come with those figures. I don't want to name actors now but anyone who follows them would know as to how weather conditions have been given as "valid reasons" for a movie not doing well at the BO but hardly anyone of them said a word about the protests that surrounded Dilwale. Anywho , these things have become so common now that one can see through it. These people think they are being "clever" but they don't know many here are one step ahead of them

BOI is a very very cunning and manipulative site...they will manipulate their figures according to the results they want...their is nothing genuine about them...They gave HNY a 40 cr opening day..and then after PK released...after 1.5 months they reduced the opening of HNY by 10% and made it 36 cr...so that PK became the highest single day earning movie...that is why I don't trust anything they say...and the way they are defending FAN and even Dilwale after almost 4 months now...raises a RED FLAG...they are setting us up...so that we won't be able to blame them during Raees time...

As far as i know BOI is not even headquartered (if you can call it a head quarter) in india. They are some self proclaimed BO champs. Salman and aamir fans quote BOI when BOI quote lower figures for srk movies. Suddenly when BOI quoted lower figures for PRDP then for the same fans Taran chacha became an idol. So its more about the hypocrisy of fans.

Actors by definition need to act. BO is the headache of film makers, not actors. I never understand why fans get into the battle of BO. Fans should just talk about the film and maybe quote BO figures. But why fight about BO figures? Thats just too irritating.

Look at Twitter. It has become a battleground for fans. Stupid trends are always started by fans (including srk fans). Today one of the trending topic is "ye eid sultan ke naam". I mean seriously? I would stop using twitter if such trends do not stop.

But only
time will tell what position Fan will take amongst his highest grossers
till now. Here's a look at the box office performance of Shah Rukh
Khan's highest grossing films so far.

As i have always said about FAN, i dont know why i am feeling proud when reading the word flop. Its almost like srk said "sarfaroshi ki tamanna...". He took the industry by its horns and tried to fight against the odds. End result is he lost the battle. But he may have won a war. We will see.

Because fandom has become a thing. Unlike gaurav as a solo. We have camps of gauravs. So the film good or bad has to break records. It has to be top grossers.. Fandoms fight with each other. And social media have a say and celebs Are on it so they do get affected..

The thing is SRK has been a business man in most of his recent films. In this one, he seemed to have been just an actor. And it was very refreshing to see.
